steering vibration...

yo guys for the longest time my cars been making a lil vibration whenever i turn right... just recently its gotten a bit bigger and louder. the steering wheel vibrates and theres this sound from under the front end when i turn right.. turning left theres no problem... oh yeah i have no power steering cause the power steering shaft was bent when i bought the car.. tried putting a belt on but it wiggles of the pulley after a minute.. n e ideas cuz i cant think of what it might be... peace

Hey Helliviknow where are you from?
I have a power steering pump for a 2GNT.

Change that shock while your at it.

Start with those 2 things and then try diagnosing the problem once they are fixed.

Could be a bad bearing or something of that sort. But gotta fix the obvious first.

These cars are funny like that.
You could have all the symptoms that someone else had when it was one particular problem but yours might be somethine totally different. And very simple to fix.

All my problems have been.

But that cars a pain in the ass.
Theres alot of blood sweat and tears into my car. HAHAHA

I'll take 20 bucks for it. And shipping from me to you is going to be roughly 12.00 via UPS ground and it will take 2 days to get to you. Let me know if you are interested.

Re: steering vibration...

yeah my uncle can do it at his shop... but i also like the alingment at tire discounters... i bought my wheels/tires there and the alignment it came with was great.. car never drove straighter lol.. but they have some high tech machine prints out the camber, toe, caster all that and shows you the low down from before the alignment and what it changed and what it is now....

Re: steering vibration...

what the reason behind putting in nitrogen instead of normal air?

Re: steering vibration...

well from what there radio comercial said its less likely to leak over time... and it stays cooler therefore prolonging tire life or somethin... apparently nascar and f1 and stuff have been using it for a while now.. im not sure if its all they say it is but its free to get it if uv ever bought tires from them or something and like a buck a tire if not.. and since it was free i was like sure why the hell not lol..
